The P Word and the C Word
Posted on March 29th, 2008. Filed under: Daily, Friends & Family, Uni.It’s 4 in the morning and my brain cells are nowhere near functional. Last year, I promised myself I wouldn’t be like this anymore. Oh how convenient it was when I finished my work way ahead of time and not stressing out during the last minute? Well it’s back to procrastinating again for me now. With my mind constantly wandering off, my mother’s state, and my lack of motivation.. I’m left with this. I’m supposed to complete a big fat essay by Monday, but what am I doing now? Of course, blogging. Anything to get away from an educational obligation.
So tonight I took the sister out for some sisterly fun. With both the parents in Singapore for mom’s surgery (more on that later), the father gave me permission to take my sister out to the movies. We watched The Spiderwick Chronicles which isn’t that bad.
As for my mom’s condition, I talked to her last night and she sounded really well, she’s been walking and doing normal things. The final results are going to come out tomorrow, even though there were no complications during the surgery, I’m 100% hoping it’s going to be all well. You know, I haven’t really voiced out my feelings regarding my mom’s state, that’s because I don’t know what to think and I don’t want to think about possible and future aspects. I’m extremely close to my parents, our relationship is beyond amazing. I don’t know, I can’t say anything for now. What I just hope and pray for is that all these (sickness stuff) will be gone. The mom of a good friend of mine battled it, there’s Sheryl Crow and Kylie Minogue who got through it just fine, I’m sure my mom will. I KNOW she will. She took immediate action at an early stage and it’s going to be all gone. She’s going to be sick-free soon.
Please, as soon as possible.

Hope your mum gets back to good health soon! It’s great that you have such an awesome relationship with your parents.

My mom too had stage-3 cancer (complicated by hypertension, diabetes, sodium poisoning/toxic goiter, minor kidney failures ..heheh), had to go through 8 chemo sessions, and came through just fine. Probably not as dramatic as your story, but hey, take what you will :-P

Oh, I so feel for you. If there’s only one thing I dread in this life, it’s the sickness of family members and loved ones.
And if it’s not physically and emotionally possible, I’m spiritually behind you and your mom’s back on this fight.

I did something I rarely do for other people, and that is praying for them (in your case, for/with your mom.) Sorry if it took me just now to know about this (or maybe I forgot about/overlooked it). I just, well… after reading it… nah. It sounds so corny… -_- (*giggles) Neil, stop.
She’ll make it. (*thumbs up)

I hug my friends when they’re going through something. I don’t know if this would help, but I’m sending a virtual hug on your way anyway. >:)<
God bless your mom.

I’m procrastinating from sleep at 3 in the morning. I start in 5 hours. I liked how you called in educational obligation. That’s what it is.
I’m glad your mom’s surgery went well! & I’m envious. My relationship with my parents is no where close as I would like it to be. How do you do it? Anyway, good luck with the work. YOU CAN DO IT!

I usually do that too - procrastinating at the verge of a deadline or something. Well, I don’t really know the reason behind it but I enjoy doing ita nyway. :P
My Dad and I are close, but it’s quite unfair on his part since he had no idea about my smoking and the booze and the shits I’ve done. :d
I hope your mom’s gonna be fine all throughout the operation.
